🇲🇶Flag: Martinique Emoji

🇲🇶 is the flag: Martinique emoji, U+1F1F2 U+1F1F6, one of 259 in the Country Flags set. It arrived with Emoji 2.0 (2015) and is commonly used for MQ, flag.

Not seeing the flag? Windows has never included country flag glyphs, so Chrome and Edge draw the two letters MQ instead of 🇲🇶. Nothing is wrong with the character — copy it and it appears correctly on iPhone, Android and Mac, and in WhatsApp, Instagram and Discord. This page loads a flag font so it draws properly here regardless.

What 🇲🇶 flag: Martinique means

Country flags do identity work: nationality in a bio, a football result, the language somebody is learning, a trip just booked, a dish claimed as local. Each one is a pair of regional indicator letters matching a two-letter ISO 3166-1 code rather than a picture, so a device without the artwork simply shows the two letters. Windows has done this for years.

Unicode tags this one MQ, flag and files it under Flags → Country Flags.
